Sliding scale: When available I offer a limited number of sessions on a sliding scale. Sliding scale is based on income and you may be asked to disclose this information.
Insurance
I do not currently take insurance. I can offer you a superbill for reimbursement (please note I must provide a mental health diagnosis with any superbill).
Therapy is a costly investment in your mental health. And it’s difficult to predict or quantify how the value is felt in the future. I understand it can be a big decision. The primary reason I do not take insurance is to protect the confidentiality of my clients.
Once an insurance company is paying for therapy one loses their right to privacy. All information, including any diagnoses we discuss or agree on, may go in your permanent medical record. It is my belief that you will experience the greatest level of freedom and safety, and most productive therapy, without this potential infringement.
Good Faith Estimate
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services. You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
